Kanjur
Kanjur (bka.ʾgyur, ‘translated word (of the Buddha)’). The primary part of the Tibetan Buddhist canon which comprises all sūtras and tantras attributed directly to the historical Buddha Śākyamuni, to his later revelation, or (in the case of some tantras) to another transcendent Buddha. The Kanjur numbers 100 or 108 vols. according to edn., and was largely systematized by the scholar and historian Butön, in the 14th cent. CE. See also TANJUR.
